 Prospect.1 Biennial 2008 Prospect.1 New Orleans will open to the public on Saturday, November 1st, 2008, and run until January 18, 2009. The exhibition plan for Prospect.1 New Orleans calls for a total of 100,000 square feet of exhibition space, divided among several buildings in various historic New Orleans neighborhoods, including the Warehouse District, the Bywater, French Quarter, the Marigny, and the Treme. A number of existing institutions and halls – CAC, NOMA, the Ogden -- will be used, along with converted warehouses, commercial structures and other public spaces in the city. On November 1, 2008, Prospect.1 New Orleans, the largest biennial of international contemporary art ever organized in the United States, will open to the public in museums, historic buildings, and found sites throughout New Orleans. Prospect.1 New Orleans has been conceived in the tradition of the great international biennials, and will showcase new artistic practices as well as an array of programs benefiting the local community. Over the course of its eleven-week run, Prospect.1 New Orleans is placed to draw international media attention, creative energy, and new economic activity to the city of New Orleans. Prospect.1 New Orleans has been designed to help reinvigorate New Orleans following the human, civic, and economic devastation left by Katrina in 2005. The long-term primary goal of the biennial exhibition is to redefine the city as a cultural destination, where the visual arts are celebrated and can once again thrive. Prospect.1 New Orleans aspires to initiate a new category of cultural tourism for the city, on a scale normally seen during Mardi Gras and the city's celebrated Jazz-Fest. www.prospectneworleans.org |
